Text Any textual data included in the document (at top upside down) Love from Mother Warren Conn Sunday eve May 29th, ’64 Dear Gub, Your letter of the 24th just arrived last Friday and as any news from the 2nd CVHA is in great demand just now I read some portions of it, omitting the romantic, aloud. At the P.O., to an admiring audience, while a brisk shower was transpiring without. We can get no information from the main body of the 2nd since their arrival at Fredericksburg. Mrs. E. Shepherd hears from her Fred frequently but he was left behind at Belle Plains, on business similar to yours, I should presume he has sent Em. packages and bundles from there to the tune [page 2] of an $8.00 express bill. I wonder if Miner, Austin, H. A. etc. have over- taken Grant yet. If so we shall hear exciting news before the close of the week no doubt. I do not wonder that you wish to be with them but we are about and well satisfied with the present arrangement of things. Fannie started for North East last Monday, since that time Ma and I have been sole occupants of our house, company excepted, and nothing has been heard from Fannie. She has gone out into the world to seek her fortune, and is probably too much engaged in her search to stop to write home, though I should think she would want to use her new pen occasionally. By the way weren’t we surprised when we discovered Austins beautiful gifts [page 3] where we expected to find bundles of old letters written by ourselves, with possibly a book or two, and we hoped also for a letter from you and then, sure enough, it was, good as new, though bearing a somewhat- ancient date. We are certainly very much obliged to you for the share you had in the trouble of shipping that package, you even intimate that with some such aid as you gave we should never have received it. Many thanks to you. For the rest, I will soon write to the Madisters, and not burden you with messages to him. I do not know how readily letters reach the Rgt. now. When you write again please tell how to direct them. Aunt Miranda wishes you to open the bundle she sent to Miner by Mr. Camp, take out and appropriate [page 4] the maple sugar concealed within then send back the shirts as Miner will not want them to carry around with him. I allow your arbutus letters to be romantic, highly so, I suppose you could not even guess who so kindly remembers our wandering Luke, if so probably would not mention it aloud. O’no, assumed hand writing without doubt, no means of ascertaining definitely the fair (dame?). We have not received any “Chronicle” lately so conclude that you reprinted and did not send it or else it has been lost on the road. Have I acknowledged the receipt of the Co. D Memorial? I forget. Well it came all safe with your name picked up among the Lts. as large as life. It looks well on paper certainly. I do kindah wonder how you would look with decked out with all your new fixin’s Well, if you live and prosper I shall hope to see you strut into our kitchen so gayly bedight in about 16 months. Capt. Wadhams sword came into our P.O., + I saw it the other night. Frid. I sent it up to Mr. Stones, don’t see why he should.

Text Any textual data included in the document Sunday P.M. October 12th ‘62 Dear Sir— Having just completed the task of refreshing my mortal stomach and having been liberally fed with spiritual meat prepared And presented by Priest Vail I feel that I ought to be capable of accom- plishing almost anything I choose to undertake, so I write to you- Dea. Swift inquired after your welfare today says he has not received that letter from you yet. Do write to him I really feel sorry for him every Sunday he seemed so lonesome I believe his class in Sabbath school is entirely broken up but am not sure- he took Aunt Phebe’s class once when she was gone- Closson Stone is getting quite [page 2] waked up about the affairs of the nation - and is planning to be very patriotic in his way - Of course it will not be necessary for me to explain further - as every body knows Closson has but one way of doing good that is by having a concert - this time the proceeds are to be used for the benefit of the soldiers who are in want of “the comforts and blessings which we enjoy” - the first preparatory meeting or singing school is to be held this evening - I have a pressing invitation to attend - but have not decided whether to go or not to go yet. You asked how war matters looked now to us who have nothing to do about it except to look on - prophesy and find fault - but you inquired at the wrong place if you wished to get any news - we do not take the Daily war [Page 3] so I hardly keep posted except in the great events - which every one hears of - but I had arrived at nearly the same conclusion as your self - I have since the President’s great Proclamation - had no doubt but that we should finally triumph because I do not see why we have not at last got on to the right track and though I don’t know but I feel as much interest in the details as ever yet however discouraging they may appear they have no longer any influence upon my mind except that circumstances may put farther off “the good time coming” - The “Great Question” with me now is the same which once agitated the mind of the late Stephen A. Douglas when he said “Old Abe” - How long etc? Do you get the Litchfield paper [Page 4] or the reading of it? because if you do not - you have lost one very good thing which is now in general use in our family some friends of the author of Hohenlinden being on a visit to that gentleman and one of them having the misfortune to fall down a very long flight of stairs then past - stepped to the door and inquired what was the cause of such a noise - a voice replied far down the stairs “‘Tis I sir - rolling rapidly” If you have seen the story do tell me so that I can go home and kill myself - as Miss Mowsher would say - Dear! dear!! Mother is bringing in wood and I must run and put a stop to such proceedings - and now it is too dark to write - we got a letter from Cy las week he is still at Jacksonville at Camp Duncan - he writes an almost entirely new hand but composes much as of old - Lucy Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data ALS Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
